"Under this system, anyone selling or possessing unregistered firearms would face huge legal risks. Overnight, gunrunning and other illegal arms trafficking would become easier to prosecute.”
And here is where we have the luxury of referring to some other poor bastards who already did this experiment for us, and proved it false.
Canada ran such a registry for nearly two decades, at a cost of more than 500 times what they promised the subjects. They discontinued it after it was pointed out that it never figured in the prosecution of a single gun crime, EXCEPT for the "paper crimes” created by the very existence of a mandatory registry.
